some Kentucky newspapers have late
ly been booming Henry Watterson, the
brilliant editor of the Courier Journal,
for United States senator. He has just
written an editorial friend u letter in
which he says among other things: The
examples Of two eminent members of our
profession, whose contention in the field
of practical politics embittered their lives
and dwarled their usefulness, and tar
nished their fame, and the tragic fate
which each in his death encountered,
made an early and deep impression upon
my mind. | think, with Philip Van
Arteyelde, that
Men in their places are the men who stand
Il am, and have been all my life, a
journalist, and a working journalist
equal to the duties which yield me a suffi.
cheney, happy in my associates and proud
of my calling. Iset it neither above, nor
below, that OF other men. 1t Is simply,
like the choice of the swain iE the immor-
tai pastoral, mine own As such, for
GOOD or III, L shall abide by II to the end.
But l will give it, through you, tho trib
ute that may be found in the confession
that | never knew what pure selfshness
means and squalid dependence is, until l
found myself an atom of that class in
which, more than in any other on earth,
it is everybody for himself and devil take
the hindmost."
The last sentence contains a mighty
keen thrust at the professional politicians,
but the whole letter Is another contribu-
ton to the fund of experience and em-
phasiEes the fact that everyone should
stick to his trade. The most successful
newspaper man is he who watches the
fight from the most advantageous point
without taking any but q professions part
in the contest.

Larry jerome Is not eminent in politics
or finance, has never held Il notable pub
lie position and his wealth is limited. vet
when lie arrived from England yesterday,
the whole town began to gossip and tuu,,
there are interviews in the papers col
umns in length. 1t would puzzle an out
slider to account for Larry Jerome's prom
Inencc. No recent arrival has attracted
so much attention, Beside him the Sl-
amCsc princes, the Duke Of Marlborough.
Sir Lyon Pluyfair and all the other nooit,
tiles fade Il of sight. Larry jerome
dwarfs them all. The explanation is
simple: He's a diner out and a mighty
one ut that. His presence AT a table in
sures the success Of the entertainment.
Wherever he goes he is eagerly sought
after on account of his jollity, wit and
humOr. I've known John w. Mackay
and Roscoe Conkling to wander about the
uptown cafes for hour trying to find Jc-
rome or Tom Ochiltree so as to carry them
off to dinner.
4 more beautiful and touching sight
than these o Il gentlemen rot the Gcs-
tive board it would be impossible to i'm.
agine. I've seen them in the now dcfunct
Carleton club when even the walters were
impressed by the air OF gcniality and good
fellowship that lowered over the table.
Ochiltree was benign, rotund, gloomy.

bright eyed, smiling with intense amusc-
ment; Coukling digniied, but quizzical
and bright, and Larry Jerome amiable,

inquiring Of his audience An those in
favor Of using luhaumatory language say

All those in favor Of having red flags
say aye" There was another roar OF
satisfaction. He then assumed a serious
mien, and, turning squarely upon his
audience, said: No, | don't believe in
red fags. The stars and stripes are good
enough for Us. If | nm the head devil of

Many people will cordially agree with
Mr.. Train in the last statement which

strntions would not suit the schedule Of their
regular trains. In short, they insisted on
preparing n special train of three cars, md
this has been done at the Pullman car shops
in Wilmington, Del.
or tho three tho first car, the Alfnrettn, is
the ordinary composite car, with cOmpart-
ment for baggage Next t it arc an elegant
library, smoking room, wash room and bar
Der shop. The second Cur is the ordinary
Pullman used on the Pennsylvania Central,
but remodeled on the vestibule plan; that Is,
so one may pass directly through to either
the forward or hinder car, as from ono room
to another IN n residence. But the last car Is
the one on Which elegance Is lavished, as it Is
for the exclusive use of Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland.
The rear room is for observation, with broad
plate glass windows through which the land
scapc may be viewed. 1t is upholstered in
mahogany and blue plush. Next are the
sleeping and dressing rooms, finished in white
maple and furnished with large folding bed
and all the toilet conveniences. In front of
this is the main saloon, for use as dining and
sitting room, finished in oak with old gold
carpet and upholstery of terra Gotta silk plush.
At the end are writing desk and parlor organ.
AT the forward end of the car is tho kitchen.
This car is sixty feet long md illuminated by
electric light. When we add that Mrs Cleve-
land can pass from one car to the other as
easily as from one room 20 another in the
White House, 1t will be apparent that tue
